Game Review : FABLE III (Xbox 360)

Set half a century after the 2nd Fable instalment, again the primary essence of this action Role Playing Game is choice. By interacting with a variety of Albion inhabitants, your decisions have a direct impact on the course of the tale, and your fate. Make nasty choices and you head down the path of evil, while a more virtuous life will result in rising to becoming a great and influential figure. After choosing your gender, you go out into the world with the potential to lead Albion down a fortuitous road, or dark destruction as you decide on your actions, contributing to the changing of your appearance and villagers’ reaction towards you. Even your diet and fighting style translates to your appearance.  Your loyal dog follows you everywhere and will prove indispensable, from assisting in combat to finding treasure.  Magic also comes into play with spells and potions. You can also have sex, get married and start a family! Special downloads are available on-line. Going out into this free-roaming Steam-Punk slanted realm, exploring could become more interesting than the real lives of the gamers sinking their teeth into this virtual existence!
